Chapter 5

In Lin Feng's courtyard, he was brimming with excitement. He quickly got inside his house, bit his finger, and put some blood on the space ring as he was instructed. He felt an instantaneous connection with the ring and assumed it as a sign of success.

He imagined the inside of the space ring and an image of the contents were displayed inside his mind. There were countless spiritual stones, a green slip that he assumed to be the jade slip, and some scrolls that he assumed to be martial techniques.

He quickly sat on his bed in a meditative position and took out the jade slip. Following his grandfather's instruction, words were displayed inside his mind. These words instructed him on a breathing technique that allows him to absorb spiritual energy into his body.

He got excited as he had a hunch after practicing the technique. He could finally be called a cultivator. Without wasting time, he practiced the breathing technique.

At the same moment, a dark silhouette that was similar to Lin Feng appeared behind him. The silhouette tore the void. An endless space filled with darkness could be seen on the other side. It was an expanse filled with the deadly chaos energy.

At the same time, powerful entities with deep and unmeasurable cultivation bases could be seen. What was surprising was their numbers. Even more, surprising was that these powerful entities were currently kneeling with their faces down. It was like they were worshiping and at the same time, they were afraid of what they were worshiping.

The silhouette appeared in front of these entities, without sparing them an eye, started to suck the chaos itself into his mouth. The chaotic energy flowed into his mouth quickly like it had found where it is supposed to belong. This process went on for about one minute before the silhouette disappeared, finally bringing peace to the vast chaos.

The prostrating entities got up quickly. What could be assumed to be the leader of the entities gave the others instructions, the other entities acknowledged their instructions and disappeared in place to carry out their tasks.

Back at the courtyard, the silhouette appeared again and disappeared inside Lin Feng's body. This whole process happened while Lin Feng was oblivious to it. Changes occurred in his body. His organs became different in a way that could not be described, his physique changed and became more defined, his hair became longer and darker, his bloodline changed, if whatever he had could be called blood.

The chirping of birds awakened Lin Feng. How he slept, he didn't remember. The important thing was he acquired memories which were strange yet familiar.

" Is this a dream? "

Lin Feng asked himself, memories or more specifically, knowledge. He was sure he didn't have yesterday were currently in his mind,

What was more frustrating was the memories were of useless things that he didn't know the use of, like painting, calligraphy, music, carving, and many other useless things.

Lin Feng assumed this was probably related to his dream. That was the only explanation that he could come up with. Although he had had other dreams, he usually forgets them when he wakes up, so this time, he must have remembered his dreams hence the unaccountable memories.

Thinking of this, he relaxed on his bed and thought how to proceed, he had a feeling that he forgot something but he couldn't remember what it was, he shrugged his shoulders and decided to continue resting as it was still too early, unbeknown to him his earlier enthusiasm of cultivating was lost.

In the main hall of the Lin family in Lin Yao's room, an old man was currently raging. Chairs were thrown across the room tables were broken. Even the ground was cracking. This old man was Lin Yi.

The reason for his rage was that he was played.

Somebody was controlling the strings behind his back. He had come to his son's room to harvest his cultivation base, but what he found made him vomit blood.

His son's cultivation base was harvested, leaving only a corpse behind.

"Hahaha.... good." The old man was laughing in anger.

"Old Dong, don't blame this old man for being ruthless."

Lin Yi didn't think twice before accusing Dong Li, the current king of the northern kingdom.

"The old man won't be satisfied if he doesn't wash this hate with your blood and feast on your flesh."

Lin Yi was burning with hatred, and since the royal family relied on tricks to become the fisherman, he figured they were as strong as his son or at least equal to him.

His actual cultivation was hidden. Hence, he thought no one knew about it, he was preparing to leave and maybe if he was lucky, his son's cultivation could be retrieved and a kingdom rewarded to him for his hard work.

"Old man Lin what's the matter?"

Zhao Lin stopped Lin Yi, Zhao Lin was resting in her room but was startled by the sudden noise, she came to investigate but was startled by what she saw, her husband was dead, and the room was in a mess, she thought Lin Yi was grieving for his son, but then Lin Yi's following words surprised her.

"When I was thinking of a place to vent out my anger, you decide to show up. You have always been an eyesore." Lin Yi coldly stated.

" What does that mean?" Zhao Lin was surprised before she started to have a life and death crisis.

"Don't worry, you were always clueless, and besides, what business does a dead person have with the living?"

"-"

Zhao Lin was first shocked before she understood Lin Yi's words, only that it was too late.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Yi mobilized his qi to form a claw and decapitated Zhao Lin mercilessly. Blood spurted out like a fountain spraying the whole room red. Only the place where Lin Yi was standing was left spotless as he used his qi to prevent the blood from dirtying his clothes.

Lin Yi mobilized his qi again and burned the remnants of Zhao Lin's body before disappearing. It seemed he had a fetish of burning dead bodies.
